I want to let everyone know about a new community-curated exhibit in our Public Perspectives series that will open at BHS on Wednesday, September 10, 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. Counter/Culture: The Disappearing Face of Brooklyn's Storefronts features color photographs by James and Karla Murray of mom and pop shops all over Brooklyn. Keeping it old school, the photos were taken with film. There are photos of single storefronts, and then they took the film and created digitally-edited panoramas of stretches of an entire block of storefronts. In addition to the photographs, there is audio and video of interviews with the storeowners. This show truly captures the character of old storefronts and their owners! The exhibit also addresses the challenges of maintaining a family-owned or small business in the face of neighborhood development. The opening reception is free and open to the public. Come on by BHS and check it out!
